Hi everyone,

As you know, the intent of the Simons league is to provide every team with a chance to win every game. We make trades after 10 games when each team has played every other team twice. If the teams are still not balanced after 3 rounds of games, then we will also make another trade after the teams have played 15 games.

As one of the captains was unable to meet next week, the captains got together last Friday and made a trade. The Bruins are currently the best team in the league having won 8 of their first 9 and the Leafs have won 2 of their first 9 so we made a trade to try and bring more balance to those two teams. The other four teams appeared to be within a game or two of each other in the middle of the pack and at this point, the captains agreed that those teams were competitive so no further trades were made.

Commencing next week, November 10th, Lenny Wiltzen will be a member of the Bruins and James Addison, will don a Maple Leafs jersey. Lenny and James, make sure that you know what time your new teams’ game is at and make sure and get your old sweater to the team in time for their game.

If there are further trades made after the next round of 5 games, we’ll let you know. See you on the ice !

Cheers,
The Commish
